Dark Warrior Alliance #20.5

All I Want for Christmas is my Mating Stone

Rate this book
The tree is trimmed, the stockings are hung, and Mack is ready to celebrate the holidays with her sexy vampire, Kyran. But when she discovers her mating stone has gone missing she is ready to sever some heads.

Christmas cheer quickly turns to chaos when the other females at Zeum can't locate their stones, either. Subsequently, terrible events occur one after another, and Mack is convinced it's because of the missing jewels. She fears her worst nightmare has come true.

Did the Archdemon steal the stones, and finally obtain the leverage needed to gain access to the Triskele Amulet? if so, the Lord of the Underworld will soon wreak havoc on her friends and family, as well as, the entire planet.

Mack and Kyran travel to the dragon realm, Khoth, in search of a clue to the whereabouts of the stones. Poisonous birds, mischievous gnomes, and a sexual rendezvous beneath a waterfall can only mean one thing. It's another unforgettable adventure with the fiesty, sarcastic, f-bomb dropping Mack and her deviant Vampire Prince, Kyran.

What begins as a search for a shiny stone ends with the couple learning the true meaning of love, sacrifice, and family. Christmas miracles exist, if you truly believe.

Mack is ready to celebrate the holidays with her sexy vampire, Kyran, but when she discovers her mating stone has gone missing she’s ready to sever heads. All the holiday cheer throughout Zeum quickly turns to chaos as none of the females’ stones can be found and terrible events began occurring. What begins as a search for a shiny stone ends with the couple learning the true meaning of love, sacrifice and family Christmas miracles exist, if you truly believe.

This holiday story is a delightfully exciting and joyous story that includes a trip to Khoth, a quest and self-discovery. The plot is fast paced and has our favorite snarky, kick behind mate and her sexy vampire having a few issues regarding their family of course these issues don’t impact the rocking chemistry or the scorching passion just the emotional side of things. The search for the mating stones leads them to Khoth where Mac receives an extra special gift that changes her and Kyran’s family for the better, which makes this story a delightful and extra special holiday read.

This Christmas novella integrates a few things I haven't seen a whole lot of in novellas: spice, TONS of fantastical/paranormal characters, heavy topics, and Christmas!

Mack is a human who's immortal, thanks to the mating stone she got in the special "wedding" type ceremony with her fated mate Kyran (a vampire). But one day her mating stone goes missing. And then the discover that ALL of the mating stones are missing...and the human women who own these stones start feeling the loss. Mack and Kyran go on a quest to get the stones back, complete with just about every creature imaginable, different realms, and some seriously spicy scenes! We see a whole cast of interesting characters. This book was super entertaining, even if the writing wasn't the best I'd ever read. We're even treated to a glimpse of book 21! (Why stop at 20.5?) ;oD

Trigger warnings: arguing over whether or not to have a baby vs. career, death of a mother in childbirth (off page but still pretty emotional), a fetus that stops moving

The Dark Warrior Alliance is now over 20 books in length and this is such a cute story.

This book kinda focuses on Kyran and Mack - Kyran is wanting a baby, and Mack is too much a warrior to think about motherhood, until the mating stones go missing and they have to travel to Khoth to talk to Izzy to see if she can help find them.

They find the stones and an opportunity to adopt an orphaned dragonette presents itself, and surprise of all surprises, but Mack is the one that jumps at the chance in a heartbeart.

This is a great little add-in story that plumps up the storyline and adds details about the family like of your favorite couples.

Christmas just might be ruined for the Dark Warriors and their mates. All of the mating stones have disappeared. Nothing good could come of that, or could it? I was so happy that Mack and Kyran had the lead here. They have always been one of my favorite mated pairs. Everything about them is hot, including the sex. They take a trip to Koth, hoping Izzy can help them, but found so much more while there. This was a great novella that told a story of true love. Perfect for the holidays. I received an advanced copy and I am voluntarily leaving this review.

Book 20.5 of the Dark Warrior Alliance Novella series a well written story that once I started reading I was not putting down until I was finished. I want to read the rest of this series. Mack and vampire Kyran take on a trip after all the women at Zeum mating stones disappear, they and Nick travel to the dragon realm, Khoth where Izzy is. Izzy has a connection to the Goddess. But is it the stones they have to find, or is there another reason for their hunt that the Fates have planned for them? I read this book through K.U. and I am voluntarily leaving a review.

Great Christmas novella in the DWA worlds. All the females at Zeum have had their mating stones stolen! Mack and Kryan take a portal to Khoth hoping Izzy can talk to the Goddess for them, they will return to the Tehrex realm with a little more than they bargained for.

It was great to catch up with Mack and Kryan. The story is a fantastic Christmas tale of love and devotion (and lots of hot sex!). I was given an advanced copy of this book by the authors. My review is voluntary.

Never too late for a Christmas story!

This story is mostly about Kyran and Mac. It is almost Christmas and it has been discovered that all the mating stones are missing. It is causing problems for the Warriors and their mates, especially Elsie.
Of course no one but Izzy can contact the Goddess. So Kyran and Mac head to Khoth.
I love this short story and the unexpected ending was awesome. I can't wait to read more about Harlow.

A World of New Life

Kyran and Mack life fast and hard as warriors.
Kyran wants to start a family. Mack doesn't feel she's ready to be a.mom.
Care shows them just how ready they both are, after all the mating stones go missing.
A trip to Kroth changes everything. A baby to call their own and arrive that is growing to fast.
A new kind of style is in order

This was an interesting read. The mating stones belong to the female mates. When they go missing it's more than just a jewel gone, strange things are hurting the people. Will travelling to another dimension help them put everything back and find their stones?

Another Great book from the Dark Warrior Alliance...

I am loving this series with every new book that I read. The action is non-stop and the romance is hot. I am loving each new character along with the tension and suspense that they add to the poor unsuspecting forever mates they encounter. It's fun to catch up with the growing families and watch them go from tiny newborns to mischievous preteens. It's an amazing way of life. I can hardly wait to start in on the next book in the series, It is never boring and there always a surprise or two around the next corner... The only reason that I gave this book four stars is because of the length of this book, I love my books to be long and time consuming. This one almost had it made another 100 pages or more would have made me a Happy Camper... Thank you ladies for another great addition to my all time favorite series. I am going to miss the collaboration of Brenda Trim and her partner in crime Tami Julka but I am certain that the series will continue with the 😢 amazing characters that I have grown to Love 💘. And I look forward to many, many more...
